Is it a problem to shoot one in the rain?

I notice water accumulation in the cams.

Larry, same thing with a Compound....not an issue. Rain just makes tracking tougher, as the rain washes away the blood trail.

Let me tell you why I ask.

I shot it to uncork it. It sounded odd. In addition, 2 of the noise dampening devices went flying.

keep a little coating of oil,, like remington gun oil on the slide the bolt sits in and it will help some in the rain

Back to the dealer....that's not right. Have them fire it. If it sounds strange, you may have a cracked limb, untimed cams, or a myriad of other things.
